CLI Options
Usage: awf [options] [command] [args...]
Network firewall for agentic workflows with domain whitelisting
Arguments:
args Command and arguments to execute (use -- to separate from options)
Options:
-V, --version output the version number
Configuration:
--config <path> Path to AWF JSON/YAML config file (use "-" to read from stdin)
Domain Filtering:
-d, --allow-domains <domains> Comma-separated list of allowed domains. Supports wildcards and protocol prefixes:
github.com - exact domain + subdomains (HTTP & HTTPS)
*.github.com - any subdomain of github.com
api-*.example.com - api-* subdomains
https://secure.com - HTTPS only
http://legacy.com - HTTP only
localhost - auto-configure for local testing (Playwright, etc.)
--allow-domains-file <path> Path to file with allowed domains (one per line, supports # comments)
--ruleset-file <path> YAML rule file for domain allowlisting (repeatable). Schema: version: 1, rules: [{domain, subdomains}] (default: [])
--block-domains <domains> Comma-separated blocked domains (overrides allow list). Supports wildcards.
--block-domains-file <path> Path to file with blocked domains (one per line, supports # comments)
--ssl-bump Enable SSL Bump for HTTPS content inspection (allows URL path filtering) (default: false)
--allow-urls <urls> Comma-separated allowed URL patterns for HTTPS (requires --ssl-bump).
Supports wildcards: https://github.com/myorg/*
Image Management:
-b, --build-local Build containers locally instead of using GHCR images (default: false)
--agent-image <value> Agent container image (default: "default")
Presets (pre-built, fast):
default - Minimal ubuntu:22.04 (~200MB)
act - GitHub Actions parity (~2GB)
Custom base images (requires --build-local):
ubuntu:XX.XX
ghcr.io/catthehacker/ubuntu:runner-XX.XX
ghcr.io/catthehacker/ubuntu:full-XX.XX
--image-registry <registry> Container image registry (default: "ghcr.io/github/gh-aw-firewall")
--image-tag <tag> Container image tag (applies to squid, agent/agent-act, api-proxy, and cli-proxy when enabled)
Optional digest metadata format:
<tag>,squid=sha256:...,agent=sha256:...,agent-act=sha256:...,api-proxy=sha256:...,cli-proxy=sha256:...
Image name varies by --agent-image preset:
default → agent:<tag>
act → agent-act:<tag> (default: "latest")
--skip-pull Use local images without pulling from registry (requires pre-downloaded images) (default: false)
--docker-host <socket> Docker socket for AWF's own containers (default: auto-detect from DOCKER_HOST env).
Use when Docker is at a non-standard path.
Example: unix:///run/user/1000/docker.sock
--docker-host-path-prefix <prefix> Prefix bind-mount source paths so Docker daemon can resolve runner filesystem paths.
Useful for split runner/daemon filesystems (e.g. ARC DinD).
Example: /host
Container Configuration:
-e, --env <KEY=VALUE> Environment variable for the container (repeatable) (default: [])
--env-all Pass all host environment variables to container (excludes system vars like PATH) (default: false)
--exclude-env <name> Exclude a specific environment variable from --env-all passthrough (repeatable) (default: [])
--env-file <path> Read environment variables from a file (KEY=VALUE format, one per line)

--enable-host-access Enable access to host services via host.docker.internal (default: false)
--allow-host-ports <ports> Ports/ranges to allow with --enable-host-access (default: 80,443).
Example: 3000,8080 or 3000-3010,8000-8090
--allow-host-service-ports <ports> Ports to allow ONLY to host gateway (for GitHub Actions services).
Bypasses dangerous port restrictions. Auto-enables host access.
WARNING: Allowing port 22 grants SSH access to the host.
Example: 5432,6379
--enable-dind Enable Docker-in-Docker by exposing host Docker socket.
WARNING: allows firewall bypass via docker run (default: false)
--enable-dlp Enable DLP (Data Loss Prevention) scanning to block credential
exfiltration in outbound request URLs. (default: false)

--enable-opencode Enable OpenCode API proxy listener on port 10004 (requires --enable-api-proxy).
Only start this when the workflow uses the OpenCode engine. (default: false)
--anthropic-auto-cache Enable Anthropic prompt-cache optimizations in the API proxy (requires --enable-api-proxy).
Injects cache breakpoints on tools/system/messages, upgrades TTL to 1h,
and strips ANSI codes — typically saves ~90% on Anthropic API input costs. (default: false)
--anthropic-cach...
